Pharmacological action of

Anti-glaucoma drug. Betaxolol is a selective beta1-blocker without internal sympathomimetic activity. It does not have a membrane stabilizing (local anesthetic) effect.

Topical application of betaxolol reduces both elevated and normal intraocular pressure, due to a decrease in the production of intraocular fluid. The onset of the hypotensive effect is usually observed 30 minutes after using the drug, and the maximum decrease in ophthalmotonus occurs in about 2 hours. After a single instillation, the effect on the ophthalmotonus persists for 12 hours.

Betaxolol, in comparison with other beta-blockers, does not cause a decrease in blood flow in optic nerve, miosis, accommodation spasm, hemeralopia (unlike myotics).

Pharmacokinetics

Absorption

Betaxolol is highly lipophilic, as a result of which it penetrates well through the cornea into the anterior chamber of the eye, Cmax in the anterior chamber is determined 20 minutes after instillation. When applied topically, systemic absorption is low, and the plasma concentration is below the threshold (2 ng / ml) for detection.

Distribution and excretion of

Plasma Protein Binding - 50%. T1 / 2 - 14-22 hours. It is excreted by the kidneys (15% unchanged). Permeability through the BBB and the placental barrier is low, secretion with breast milk is negligible.
